[Catalyst] Catalyst::Plugin::Server::XMLRPC prefix option broken under lighttpd

[Alex Pavlovic]

Hi,

Catalyst versions affected: 5.69/5.7
Server: lighttpd 1.4.11_1

For the test case assume the following:

package MyApp;
__PACKAGE__->config(
	xmlrpc => {
		path => 'xmlrpc',
		prefix => 'xmlrpc',
		show_errors => 1
	}
);
...

package MyApp::Controller::XMLRPC::Session;
....
sub authenticate : XMLRPC {
	...
}

When using myapp_server.pl script, the entry is set to 
http://localhost:3000/xmlrpc, so when call for 'session.authenticate', it 
will dispatch properly to XMLRPC::Session::authenticate sub.

However once the code executes under fastcgi and lighttpd, the dispatch only 
works when call is done with xmlrpc prefix, such 
as 'xmlrpc.session.authenticate', when the call is done 
as 'session.authenticate', it complains about not finding the method that can 
handle the request. This should work however with the correct prefix being 
set.

I noticed in Catalyst::Plugin::Server::XMLRPC::_deserialize_xml that forward 
path is being set correctly at $self->forward_path( $fwd_path ), with the 
specified prefix, so I am wondering if something else outside the plugin is 
causing the problem that's related to fcgi environment.


Thanks.
